1-1/4 inch Galvanized Iron 45 Degree Elbow Female x Female

1-1/4" Galvanized Iron 45° Elbow – Built for Corrosion Resistance and Structural Integrity

The 1-1/4" Galvanized Iron 45° Elbow is a dependable solution for directional transitions in pipe networks where space and angle constraints exist. Fabricated from zinc-coated iron, it offers both mechanical strength and resistance to corrosive environments, making it a go-to fitting for pressure and drainage systems alike.

Professional-Grade Advantages

• ✅ Hot-Dip Galvanized Finish Provides superior protection against oxidation and environmental degradation in indoor and outdoor applications.
• ✅ Threaded Female Ends NPT threading ensures compatibility with standard male-threaded piping, supporting secure mechanical joints.
• ✅ Cast to ANSI/ASME Specifications Manufactured to meet or exceed dimensional and pressure standards required on job sites.
• ✅ Reliable Performance Under Load Suitable for conveying water, air, oil, and non-corrosive gases under pressure in residential, commercial, or light industrial systems.
• ✅ Angle Precision Provides accurate directional changes in plumbing runs, reducing the need for additional fittings in confined installations.

Application and Use

This 45° elbow is most commonly utilized in pressure-rated galvanized piping systems, particularly where directional flow changes are needed without creating excessive turbulence or strain. Typical installations include potable water lines, HVAC piping, and compressed air systems.

Installation Guidance

Threaded installation requires compatible pipe dope or PTFE tape to ensure tight, leak-free seals. Tightening with a pipe wrench should be performed with care to prevent over-torque, especially in systems subject to thermal cycling or vibration. Adherence to torque specifications and code compliance is recommended for optimal performance.

Key Specifications

• Material: Galvanized malleable iron
• Nominal Size: 1-1/4 inch
• Angle: 45 degrees
• Connection Type: FIP x FIP (Female Iron Pipe threads)
